Today in Seminary we watched this little video.
It just makes me so happy :) And got me thinking about things I'm grateful for!
-I'm definitely grateful for my family! These are the best people ever! I don't know what I would do without them.
-I'm grateful for Jess. She is the best older sister. She is an amazing example! She is so hardworking, faithful, silly, humble, smart, beautiful, steadfast, talented, kind, and is always serving. Just the fact that she's on a mission in the Philippines tells so much about her!
-I'm grateful for my parents. They are always there for me!
Mom is always so insightful. I can talk to her about any problem, worry, or stress I have and she knows just what to say. I can also talk to her about anything else--my day, silly stories, boys ;), friends, etc and she is always willing to listen! She is so creative. She is hardworking, a planner, very organized, and a doer. Whenever her mind is set on a task, she doesn't stop until she's done!
Dad is the most patient, selfless, kind, fun dad I know! He kind of has to be in order to raise all girls... :) He is always seen serving others, especially us girls---He even made a "toilet" when we went backpacking! haha
I love that he loves the outdoors. He's taught me the joys of fishing, hiking, observing the little things, reading a map, packing, and nature. He is sensitive to the needs of others and always says the right things. But he also always there to tease :)
-I'm grateful for this little munchkin! I've watched her grow up and discover who she is. She is the one that keeps us laughing! She is the cutest, messiest, nongirlish sister. But I love her! I love that she loves animals and little creatures. She is caring and sometimes I find little sticky notes from her that just say "I love you!" :)
-I'm grateful for this girl! Some think we look so much alike....so many people have mixed us up when they see us! But that's ok, it's definitely a compliment to be called Rebecca! She is always so patient, kind, and sensitive. She's a great listener and is always willing to go along with my crazy ideas ;) She is so creative and artsy! She's always coming up with new creations! She's also becoming a great cook too! Just this last week she baked 2 pies! and they were delicious! Definitely grateful for food :) She is very fashion savvy and lets me wear her clothes. Everytime I get get a compliment on something I'm wearing, I have to say "thanks! It's my sisters..." Haha I'm grateful she has good taste and can find cute stuff so I don't have to go shopping!
-I'm grateful for my other--sort of messed up--family ;)
They are the the best friends ever!
They can be the silliest, craziest, weirdest, funniest, most bizarre people ever, but that's why I love them! :) They are amazing people! We always have the best time together! Whether it's throwing paint at each other, watching a game in the freezing cold, sitting in the hot tub while it's snowing, playing killer sardines, staying up late to go to the midnight showing, sleeping during movies (hehe that might just be me ;), boating, or just sitting and having a pow wow, we always have a blast!
They are the best examples to me! They keep me doing the right thing. They deal with my weird ideas and boring stories... :) I just love them!
-I'm grateful for Yoga :) I just discovered it this year and I LOVE it!!!
-I'm grateful for cameras and photography
-I'm grateful for the sky. Especially Bountiful skies! A different looking sunset every night!! I love it! The sunrises in on my way to school! mmmm! so pretty!
-I'm grateful for music. Piano music, cello music, relaxing music, upbeat, french music country music, Christmas music :) If I'm around, music is usually playing!
-I'm grateful for little moments that make me happy! Like dancing in the moonlight with my dad!
-I'm grateful for pineapple. and chocolate ice cream.
-I'm grateful for blankets. Especially when I'm cold. Or when I want to lie on the grass in the summer!
-I'm grateful for the Temple. Especially this one. It's where Mom and Dad got sealed, and because of that we're sealed as a family!
-I'm grateful for gerber daisies!
-I'm grateful for books. Being able to curl up on a chair and read a good book is the best!
-I'm grateful for coloring books :) To keep up occupied while we wait for the movie to start! And so we don't fall asleep since it's the middle of the night! ;)
-I'm grateful for Holidays!!!! Especially Christmas!! ...and Thanksgiving :)
-I'm grateful when the school is warm. I get cold pretty easy, so not being constantly freezing is the best!
-I'm grateful for these beautiful young women! I have the best ward ever! These girls are so fun! I've loved growing up with them!
-I'm grateful for girl's camp!! I'm grateful for showers. Especially after girl's camp! :)
-I'm grateful for where I live. In Bountiful. In the most amazing ward and stake. I'm grateful for my house, my bed, that we can have food on the table, for all the little things we have that make life easier! I'm grateful for this country. Even though we have problems...it's not nearly as bad as other countries. I'm grateful we have our freedoms and we can make ends meet.
-I'm grateful for technology. and that I can email Jess and Ricky every week and get a respond from them every week!
-I'm grateful for Sammi, my dog. and her fluffy ears! :) She's moody sometimes. and fat. But she can be the cutest thing ever when she wants to be!!!
-I'm grateful for everything country! country music, cowboys, country outfits! :)
I'm grateful for opportunities. I'm grateful for FCCLA and the experiences I've had with that! I'm grateful for all the people I've met because of it!
-I'm grateful for my health. I can't even begin to understand the challenge of having any long term or permanent illness. Or dealing with physical impairments.
-I'm grateful for school. Even though sometimes it drives me crazy and sometimes I don't want to do anything... like this year.... I'm still glad I have the opportunity to gain an education!
-I'm grateful for Happy people! Especially when I'm not in the best mood. Seeing a happy person lifts my day!
